I read the books and hated them almost as much as I hated the Twilight series, but I think it's kind of amusing and awesome that there is a baby boom because of them. Not my thing personally but the sociology of it is pretty interesting.

I just want to smack every person who thinks it's cute/funny to ask me if my kid is a result of that book. Uh, what?? Is it appropiate/okay to go ask every pregnant woman if porn helped conceive her child? No? Then how is it cute to ask me if a book helped me make mine?

Plus, it's just fan fic of twilight, and there's better written ones online so I don't buy my porn.

I prefer my Lora Leigh, sherrilyn Kenyon, Amanda Ashley for my "erotica" fixes lol.
I'm a bit more of an imaginative woman; let me have a tall, broad shoulder, dark haired, Greek sex slave from 20,000 years ago over a business man in 2012 lol. That's just me though ;)

I can't believe people ask that. No one has asked me yet and I'd probably be annoyed if they did. It's not btw. I did get really sick of hearing about the books for the past year, just like I got sick of hearing about Twilight and Harry Potter (later loved reading Harry Potter with my daughter). But, was surprised when I broke down and read the first 100 crappy pages of Shades of Grey and found myself wanting to know what happened. It was a good way to waste 3 days of morning sickness. I think it is hilarious that the author admits that the books were not very well written and that she is surprised people are enjoying them. She seems pretty down to Earth for a mega successful author.
